The only ones I've seen up close was Andy LaRoche's when King Diamond came through, and more recently, 3 nights when Michael Ammott came through with Arch Enemy. They had wildly different tones: La Roche's was massive and warm, Ammott's was thin and buzzy. One of my favourite guitarists, Fumihiko Kitsutaka, gets an amazing tone out of one as well. There's no distribution here in the USA yet, so I've yet to play one.
